Electric vehicle battery pack cooling system
Abstract
An Electric Vehicle (EV) battery cooling container used as a safety measure to prevent thermal runaway during EV battery pack manufacturing. The container can be integrated into EV manufacturing supply chains and employs cold gas for battery pack cooling. The container features a filtration system that filters contaminants inside the container, ensuring the battery pack's safety and cleanliness. Temperature sensors are installed in the supply line for detecting temperature of the EV battery and when high temperature is detected, a gate or door in the container automatically opens to accommodate the battery pack on a platform. The temperature sensors are also installed inside the container for detecting temperature of the battery pack inside the container for sprinkling the cold gas.
